WELCOME DAPHNE! She is coming to Rocket Dog Rescue today and is excited for her new forever home. She is a husky mix (shelter paperwork says mixed with Australian Shepherd), approximately 2 years old, and has the most beautiful eyes! She is the sweetest with all people, including men, women, and children. She can actually stand up and “hug” you, so will need to be watched with small children, but she’s such a sweetie.
She loves to be pet and makes a really cute dopey face when she’s getting pet (her ears go down and she smiles – I’ve added a picture!). She waits until she’s out of her kennel to go potty. In her previous home she was a ranch dog and killed some of the chickens, so they turned her in. (Therefore no chickens in new home. No cats) She does great on jogs and hikes! Daphne actually has a calm demeanor compared to other huskies I’ve met. At first I had to carry her into the car, but with time she now jumps right in and she’s calm in car rides – either sitting or laying down. She also takes high value treats from my hand super delicately, and takes medication like a champ!
Please email adopt@rocketdogrescue.org to meet her!
